Don't you hate it when new skyrimmers think that that helmet and armor is like, THE best armor in the game? one of my friends (who was pretending to know all about skyrim) said "I just got the helmet of the drgonborn, like the one in all the trailers!".

Is the helm you're talking about the one that one of the bandits in that tower has? That's a shitty helm when it comes to protection. BTW, once I was a Kajiit and though I was an argonian, I drowned. :D
